    Match Ups | 3.5 Samus General MU Discussion

    Thanks, guys! It's definitely really scary... I just get comboed to 95%, grabbed, hit a couple times and up-thrown, so I'm trying to figure out how to get out of the combos early enough. Mewtwo wracks up damage SO QUICKLY!!! Even if I manage to escape, It takes a lot of effort on my part to...

    Match Ups | 3.5 Samus General MU Discussion

    How do you DI against Mewtwo's aerials? I find myself getting bair and shadowclaw combo'd to death after I get grabbed and thrown up. Any ideas?

    Discovering the Chozo Artifacts: A 3.5 Samus Video Discussion

    Hmm.. makes sense. I suppose everything has a time and a place. Ftilt is so good, but i also have the problem of just barely spacing it wrong or dash attacking on accident... that, of course, is just me being bad >.> i can barely manage anything in a tournament setting, so suffice is to say its...

    Discovering the Chozo Artifacts: A 3.5 Samus Video Discussion

    Question: I noticed in a lot of videos, samus' dash attack just doesn't seem to knock-back players well at all and puts samus in a really bad position to just get shield grabbed or nair'd (especially against characters like mewtwo, luigi, mario, link... well, that's where I noticed it at least...

    Videos Demonstrating a Stellar Neutral Game? Will Melee Examples Help?

    For me, I'll probably start by noting the circumstances where I can potentially get punished in certain matchups. For example, I'll note a period where I lose the neutral game exchanges and take note of what led up to that situation. In theory this makes sense to me, especially considering, for...

    Videos Demonstrating a Stellar Neutral Game? Will Melee Examples Help?

    Yea, It's definitely a weakness of mine. I get embarrassed really easily, but I try not to project my feelings onto others... I'll definitely take your advice and use one of my clean notebooks to take notes for smash. I'm sure it'll help me objectify my goals as well.. I did for Starcraft, and...

    Videos Demonstrating a Stellar Neutral Game? Will Melee Examples Help?

    I didn't even know HugS streamed! I've been to tournaments locally where I've watched Chevy play. It's really impressive at times, and at others he get's totally punished for seemingly small mistakes. I've wondered why at times, but to be honest, I never really thought too much about it. I...

    Videos Demonstrating a Stellar Neutral Game? Will Melee Examples Help?

    Thanks pooch! I really appreciate the advice. I basically want to break down the neutral game by watching games and do exactly as you said. You definitely gave me more direct advice, and I have a place to start now, which is awesome! In regard to the spacies matchups in general, would you say...

    Videos Demonstrating a Stellar Neutral Game? Will Melee Examples Help?

    Couldn't find any search results in PM boards... Basically, I'm just wondering what some examples of a great neutral game from samus players are. I'm also wondering whether I can learn much from watching melee players like plup, hugs, and darrell. Apologies if this post is redundant and no...

    Match Ups | 3.5 Samus General MU Discussion

    I actually didnt even think of not using missiles lol xD ! Approaching with zair might work! Ill definitely try that out. Instead of dash attacks, i like (or, at the very least try) to wavedash forward with ftilts or fsmash (freeze hit actually lands more often if you spot dodge it too early...

    Match Ups | 3.5 Samus General MU Discussion

    Hmm... Yea, i think you're right. The more I think about it, the more I realize it's not a mewtwo thing... It's more of my friend's style, and my bad choices that I struggle with (the bigger problem is definitely still my lack of skill...) Honestly, I want to play aggressive and I know Samus is...

    Match Ups | 3.5 Samus General MU Discussion

    Thanks, pooch! Are there any guides on how to set up recording matches on the boards somewhere? I know there are replay options, but I heard they were glitchy and im not sure ive seen anything showing they fixed it in 3.5 (Correct me if im wrong) EDIT: Searched... Replays dont work still with...
